Has the propos department never seen scale model boxes ? I wonder what Ferrari thought about this, knowing their attitude regarding the licensing of their trade mark.

It is unusual for 3 side vents instead of two and the bonnet hump, which are usually associated with the 3 cars which were upgraded to "330 GTO" spec with 4-litre engine etc - these were 3757LM (our old friend owned by Nick Mason), 3765LM (seems to be in US, but only has 2 side vents), 4561SA (actually built up from a 400 SuperAmerica, has wider front grille). So I think this is a specific "330 GTO" replica, and may be a known car amongst folk who know these things. Any better info welcome.

The 10-part model is part of the plot. Spoiler - click here to see it The suspect (Dennis Christopher) was buying all the cars he built models of as a kid by stealing from the elderly. He had stopped building models when he was 12 because his father [Paul Dooley] bought his m the cheap GTO kit, and not the 110-piece kits of the rest. The Ferrari was his big purchase that he killed for. Dooley and Christopher played father and son in the movie Breaking Away.
